StatsGuru Filters for Shane ThomsonProfile:An attacking player with a great deal of talent in all three departments of the game, particularly at limited overs. His overall record would be better but for a certain looseness. As a batsman he has scoring ability all round the wicket off either foot with excellent timing, but he is a very nervous starter outside the off stump, and finds it harder against bowling of the highest class. When settled at the wicket he is a delight to watch, and an rrr of 7-8 per over is not at all safe. Won a test against Pakistan in 1994 with 120* in a stand of 154 with Bryan Young after initially having to face reverse swing. As an offspinner he gets more turn than most, but can be wayward at times. Recently he won NZ an ODI against Zimbabwe when all the other bowlers had failed. In the field, and particularly at cover or mid-wicket, he is consistently in the very highest class. In short, an inconsistent match winner. Lost his place under the new regime, but an injury to newcomer Greg Loveridge has given him another chance. Originally a medium-fast bowler, but forced into off-spinning through injury. |
